Catholic Care’s website offers you the opportunity to find out more about us and our work on behalf of children, families and adults in many communities in the Yorkshire area. We hope you will find it interesting and informative.

Over a hundred years of pioneering social work in relation to child welfare, poverty relief and social reform has developed Catholic Care as one of the leading charities in the North of England, caring for children, older people, disabled and disadvantaged people of all ages. Our work currently ranges from a well respected adoption and family finding service to supported living for people with learning disability, care homes, volunteer work and community projects. Our work is making a real and significant difference to the quality of life of hundreds of people.
